Type RP73P series is a high power stable thin film chip resistor range offering increased power dissipation, higher temperature capabilities and increased working voltages compared to the standard RN73 series. The resistor is produced by sputtering a metal film onto high grade alumina and protecting with three complete printed layers. Values are normally offered in E96 and E24 series. The RP73 resistor has accurate and uniform physical dimensions to reduce placement problems. Typical applications include communications and industrial controls.
